Hi. My primary care doctor does not want me to see a Neurologist. Don't get it. I have pain, burning and pins and needles in both legs and feet. Take 300mg Gabapentin 3 times a day with very results. Also have PAD in both legs with my left being extremely bad. Hoping my Cardiologist appointment will offer some hope to help relieve me of this terrible pain. Would love to hear from anyone with these conditions. Thank you. Karen

Welcome @caringkaren1, Sorry to hear you haven't found much relief for your neuropathy. There are other members who have mentioned having both PAD and neuropathy. Here's a search of Connect that lists the discussions and comments from the members having both PAD and neuropathy - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/looking-for-people-who-have-high-levels-of-b6-trigger-neuropathy/.

Hoping your cardiologist may be able to offer some treatment suggestions to help with the pain. When is your appointment?
